Tour description

Imagine arriving in a city where the streets whisper words from the Golden Age, where the walls breathe history, and every corner winks at you...

It's not a dream: it's Alcalá de Henares , and you're about to discover it like never before, with the help of a guide who not only knows it, but lives it .

From the first step you will feel like you are not on just another tour:
You are entering a narrative journey , a story that is built as we advance between walls, squares, cloisters and alleys.

With just the right pace and a guide who loves this city, you'll discover what books don't tell you, what maps don't point out, and what photos don't capture: the essence of Alcalá .

  • Madrid Gate and Medieval Walls
  • Plaza de las Bernardas and Cathedral-Magistral
  • Archbishop's Palace and Palace Square
  • Rectorate of the University and College of San Ildefonso
  • Calle Mayor and its Jewish history
  • Cervantes' Birthplace
  • And more corners that only curious eyes will know how to appreciate...


📍 We end at Plaza de Cervantes , the beating heart of the city, where past and present come together.

Explore. Feel. Discover.
Experience history with us.
